The Indigo Girls

Penni Russon

Now me, I'm not an alpha obviously. I'm not, like, omega or anything which is the last letter of the Greek alphabet and saved for people like Finlay Ridge who's got this really unfortunate forehead and spits when he talks and reads books about assembling machine guns. I'm more like one of the obscure ones in the middle that no one's ever heard of - omicron or something.

Zara, Tilly and Mieke go to different schools and live in different social worlds. But for two weeks every summer they're the Indigo Girls - surfing, bushwalking or just hanging out at the campground or the nearby resort. This year Mieke doesn't show up, and Zara and Tilly - the queen bee and the geek - are left circling each other, unsure how to relate without Mieke in the middle. Soon it becomes a summer of change and a summer of secrets; a summer for losing themselves but finding each other.

The Indigo Girls is the second book in the new Girlfriend Fiction series, which is made of Awesome.
